If the company still cultivates the mystery surrounding its number of users around the world, it has not failed to boast to have the best series of the panorama. Since 2021, the platform which mainly focuses on original creations has been headquartered the first place platforms whose series and films are the best rated. It must be said that although its catalog remains infinitely thinner than that of its main competitors, the service often receives praise from the press and the public. According to information shared during the conference, Apple TV+ stands out ahead of Peacock, Max and Netflix in 2023. No doubt helped by the boxes of Severance And SiloApple TV+ seems determined to continue its momentum.
Severance returns…soon
The platform accompanied its conference with a video presentation of the series which are due to return in the coming months. This includes in particular Severance, renewed, but which has given very little news since. The series led by Adam Scott is one of the most popular with the public, and is due for a season 2. But two years after this fanfare launch, no release date has been shared. The release of new images is nevertheless a good sign, things are moving in the right direction.
